epinephrine
Epinephrine... (it used to be called Adrenalin) and most other hormones in the class named Catecholamines. Basically, these control the body's "Fight or Flight" response and prepare the body for action by releasing a rush of glucose and increasing the heart rate.
I would assume that it would be insulin.
adrenaline

Changes in blood osmotic pressure would affect the levels of?
Antidiuretic hormone
What are the diseases can affect the endocrine system?
Diabetes and thyroid disease effects the endocrine system significantly. Each of these diseases have an effect on hormone levels, which is an indication of endocrine system issues.
What happens to your heart rate when you excercise?
Depending on how light or heavy exercise is will depend on the change that occurs. Typically during exercise heart rate will increase. This is in order to increase blood flow to the working muscles to allow for increased respiration - in order for the muscles to work efficiently. Therefore the more strenuous the exercise, the more your heart rate will increase. Blood pressure will also increase during exercise and again depends on intensity levels. During exercise such as running/cycling/swimming systolic pressure will increase progressively whereas diastolic pressure will increase only slightly. During weight lifting exercises, both systolic and diastolic pressures will rise. Obviously these effects will vary from person to person, depending on age, gender, exercise level, exercise intensity etc. etc.
Why does the TPMS light on your 2003 Mini Cooper always come on?
You need to maintain your tire pressure at the recommended levels (38 front and 40 rear if you have run flats). You may have a slight leak....
Define air mass?
A warm air mass that forms in the tropics, and has low air pressure.- UNKNOWN WRITER- This definition is completely correct you can even look in a science book if you don't believe me it will say the exact samething-<3-bye-
Increases in the hormone insulin lead to?
decrease of blood glucose levels
Which is greater when blood calcium levels when parathyroid hormone is increased or decreased?
When calcium levels increase, parathyroid hormone decreases. When calcium levels decrease, parathyroid hormone increases. This is known as a negative feedback system.
The rate of secretion of parathyroid hormone increases when?
serum calcium levels increase
What is the hormone that activates Vitamin D on blood calcium levels?
Cholecalciferol is a steroid hormone that regulates body levels of calcium. It is a form of Vitamin D. Parathyroid hormone increases the concentration of calcium in the blood.
Changes in blood osmotic pressure would affect the levels of?
Antidiuretic hormone
What hormone pairs are antagonists that regulate blood calcium ion levels?
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin regulate blood calcium levels. PTH increases the calcium concentration in the blood, and calcitonin decreases it.
What type of hormone do the parathyroid glands produce?
The Parathyroid glands produce PTH, known as Parathyroid Hormone, which stimulates the production of osteoclasts which increases levels of calcium ions in the bloodstream.
How does increased plasma levels of antidiuretic hormone effect blood pressure?
In a nutshell, Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) causes the kidneys to retain water instead of excreting it. In your case, because the amount of ADH is increased, the amount of water retained in the body is also increased. The increased water enters blood vessels and increases blood pressure. (Like water in a pipe~more fluid=more pressure) Hope this helped!
What hormone reduces blood glucose levels and what hormone raises blood glucose levels?
Glucagon is the hormone that raises blood glucose levels.
What hormone prevents uterus from initiating labor before the designated delivery time?
The hormone levels are one factor. Estrogen increases contractility of the uterus while progesterone inhibits it. Throughout pregnancy, progesterone levels are high, but just before labor, they fall relative to estrogen levels and contractions start. Another hormone called oxytocin also induces labor. The number of oxytocin receptors increases as pregnancy progresses, and hormone levels rise at labor causing the uterus to contract and begin labor. The uterus also has stretch receptors and will not start contracting unless stretched to a certain degree.
What gland has functions in the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
The parathyroid glands produce and secrete parathyroid hormone which regulates calcium levels in the blood. Since it increases blood calcium levels, it promotes the function of osteoclasts, which reduce the calcium in bones and promote its increase in the blood stream.
Which gland relates to the structure of calcium in blood?
The thyroid gland produces calcitonin which lowers blood calcium levels and the parathyroids produce parathyroid hormone which increases blood calcium levels.
